EYEBROWS!!! (aka, week 21)

ok so I think this is awesome...
Her eyebrows are fully formed and filled out!! How freaking cool is that?!?! Oh yeah and so are her eyelids!

and I was thinking yesterday (cause she wasn't nearly as active as normal) that she must be gearing up for another growth spurt..
well, I just found out that that is right!

*She wieghs about 3/4 of a lb now, maybe a touch more and is over 11" long now.
*And she'll gain an ounce and half within this week!! Which means in four days or so, she'll weigh over a pound!! 16.5 ounces or so!
WOW! To put that growth spurt into perspective: a week ago she only
weighed 10.5 ounces or so. She weighs at the moment about 14.8... so OVER
four ounces in a WEEK!! oh geez...

*another REALLY cool thing that happens a LOT now.. R.E.M. which means that she is consistantly dreaming on a daily basis! How cool is that!! wonder what she's dreaming while I"m dreaming.. wonder if she gets any of my dreams somehow? what a cool thought.

*the "brown fat" which is what helps you maintain and retain body heat is starting to grow which is a REALLY good thing as this is what helps her regualate her body heat too once she's out.
